It felt like Shida and Baker approached this like a grudge match even though it was really more about rankings than anything else. There was a fair amount of brawling going on, and Baker even got her nose busted open fairly late in the match. I think the blood from Baker helped make the match feel more brutal and frantic than it would have otherwise, and that&#8217;s a good thing. This was definitely a recent standout match in the women&#8217;s division.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nEarlier today, Kenny Omega and Michael Nakazawa are happy to be teaming tonight. Omega says they need a team name, so Nakazawa suggests Best Friends.

Omega says he&#8217;ll think about it.<\/p>\n<p>Orange Cassidy emerges from another room and opens the door from Trent and Chuck Taylor. The real Best Friends heard everything, and they&#8217;re not happy. Tempers flare, and Best Friends leave in a huff.

This was a lot of fun. It was kind of a comedy match, but there was good wrestling in it as well.
